0 SIX MTDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Monday, September 19, 1955 MED! UNI Marciano, Moore Break Camp, Await Tuesday Title Scuffle New York (U.R) Rocky Marciano and Archie Moore broke camp today and headed for New York, where more than 100 workmen at Yankee sta dium wer arranging seats and erecting the ring for Tuesday night's heavyweight champion1 ship fight. Unbeaten Marciano was still a 16-5 favorite in the betting to keep his title. But he was a much heavitr favorite among sports writers. A poll of 34 disclosed today that only one picked Moore. The other 33 forecast a kayo victory by Rocky. Don Wolfe, sports editor of the Toledo, Ohio Blade, nol only selected 38-year-old Moore to win, but he said it would be on a third-round knockout. He stressed "Archie is a far super ior fighter and he will shoot the works." Both Confident Champion and challenger ex pressed confidence as they fin ished training Sunday in their mountain camps Rocky in the Catskills and Archie in the Berkshfres. Each sparred two rounds in his final workout. Archie sharpened his long left jab and left hook in one round with Gorilla Brown and one with Johnny Jenkins. His total of 108 rounds since he arrived at North Adams, Mass., on Aug. 1 was the most for any fight in his 19-year career. He expects to scale 186 pounds Tuesday noon at the weigh-in in Madison Square garden. That would be only one pound less than Rocky's expected figure. Rocky's two rounds with Sgt. J. Reed of the Air Force at Grossinger, N.Y. Sunday brought his total to 116 sinceche entered camp on July 29. It was his low est round-total for any de fense. He and his handlers fear ed over-training that had left him somewhat lethargic for his conquest of Don Cockell at San Francisco, May 16.

Burk hurled four touchdown passes, three of them to end Pete Pihos, as the Eagles beat the Los Angeles Rams 35-21 Satur day night in an exhibition game before a crowd of 17,000. . It was the sixth straight exhibition win without a loss toi Philadel phia. The injury riddled Rams, play ing without the services of first string quarterback Norm Van Brocklin managed to outgain the Eagles, 385 yards to 364. Except for a double penalty which' nul lified a pass interception the Rams might have gained a tie in the hard fought game, featur ed by several fist fights between players. The Rams open their league season Sunday in San Francisco against the Forty Niners. Trailing 28-21 in the fourth period, the Rams moved the ball to the Eagles' one-yard line on a pass interception by Will Sher man. But officials detected Lar ry Iorris of Los Angeles and Bill Stribling of Philadelphia fighting, ruled both players at fault and nullified the pass in terception play. .

(U.R) Har vie Ward, brilliant new Nation al Amateur Golf champion, would like to try now for the U. S. Open and Masters cham pionships but he isn't sure he'll have the time. "I would like to add the Open and the Masters to my list of championships," Ward admitted, "because they are the only two I haven't won that I would like to win. But I can't play golf and sell automobiles, too. My job comes first. Golf has to be secondary with me." Ward convinced a lot of folks that he would have a good chance in next year's Open and Masters tourneys by the bril lance wtth which he subdued Billy Ryndman of Philadelphia in Saturday's final round, 9 and 8. Took On Hole Hyndman, a 39-year-old insur ance brokerwon only one hole from the San Francisco auto salesman out of the 28 played in their match. He needed a long putt for a birdie three on the 20th for that Ward blasted his way over the first none holes in four-un- der-par 31 to seize a five-hole lead that took the starch out of Hyndman. In the 28 holes, Ward had 21 pars, six birdies, and only one bogey to finish five-under-par. There is a way that Ward could find. time to compete in the Open and Masters by "giv ing up his salesman's job and turning golf . professional. But that's out. ' - - ' "I will never turn profession al," said Ward with an emphasis that indicated no possibility he will change his mind. Salt Lake City A hard driv ing ground attack and sure-fire kicking earned the University of Oregon Webfoots a 14 to 13 nod over the Utes of Utah here Saturday night. The victory was revenge for a 7 to 6 Ute triumph last year. Jack Morris, sophomore from Medford, Ore., placekicked both points after touchdown perfect ly to give Oregon the victory. Utah missed out by failing to convert after its first TD. Morris also accounted for one UO touchdown. Jim Shanley scored the other. Dick James, Jack Brown, Shanley and Morris all had a hand in the Ducks ground as sault. All reeled off long gains around Utah's flanks. Morris contributed some fine blocking when not packing on the sweeps. Shanley Goes 28 Shanley ran around end for 28 yards in the second period for Oregon's first touchdown. Mor ris got the .other early in the third quarter. He returned the Pundits Jibe In Opinion On Uclans By TIM MORIARTY United Press Sports Writer Now that the early returns have been tabulated on the 1955 college football season, pass and punt pundits today agreed that uCLA, Mississippi and Arkan sas once again will rank high on the national ladder.
